What is atmosphere technical (at)?

Atmosphere technical (at) is a non-SI pressure unit defined as one kilogram-force per square centimeter, commonly used in older engineering contexts.

How is gram-force per square centimeter defined?

Gram-force per square centimeter is a non-SI unit representing the force of one gram-force applied over an area of one square centimeter.

Why use this converter instead of SI units?

This converter is helpful for interpreting and comparing legacy pressure values found in historical documents and specialized technical standards.
